This week we have VERY special guests. They are the Katy Trail pilgrims, and we have hosted them, since they have started this beautiful pilgrimage. If you don't know about it, check it out. What an amazing and Blessed group that keeps gaining attention!
Why Walk?
This trip along part of Missouri's Katy Trail is a dramatically beautiful way to give your heart to Jesus through Mary. We will travel to six beautiful Catholic churches. We will have daily Mass, pray the rosary, sing a little, and have plenty of time to walk quietly with our God amidst some of the most peaceful countryside anywhere.
Mission
Our Lady has inspired people throughout the centuries to serve her Son and His Church. In our attempt to answer her call we will walk in honor of Mary and Jesus and the Church in joyful celebration of our faith and in reparation for the wounds we have given to their Sacred and Immaculate Hearts.
As the leader of this trip, I will share a little here about myself. My name is Father Tim Foy and I am a priest of the Archdiocese of St. Louis. I currently serve as the pastor of St. Clare of Assisi Parish in Ellisville. I have traveled this route before, and I was eager to put it together following a similar pilgrimage experience in Poland.
The spirit of pilgrimage is a tremendous gift that God can give us as we go through this great pilgrimage of life. We grow in the ability to find joy even while we spend ourselves for God. May all of us realize that we are His children called to strengthen one another.
